A new feature of the WhatsApp application is under development.

Some users can already test the new companion mode, which allows several smartphones or tablets to be linked to the same account;

reports the WABetaInfo site.

Many users complained that they could only use the messaging service on one device.

Thanks to the “Link Device” option, they can now scan a QR code to link their account with five devices at once.

Other new features of WhatsApp

All chat history will be synced, but some of the features will not be available (stickers, live location, and broadcasts).

No official date has been advanced for the generalization of the “Link Device”.

Everything will depend on the feedback from beta testers.

The WhatsApp group regularly offers new features.

Among the most popular are the ability to create a poll during a conversation, send a message to yourself or start a video call with 32 participants.

The "Community" tab was also eagerly awaited: it allows you to create sub-groups within groups (example: "Office colleagues" within "Work", "Parents of students" within "School" …).
